The Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra has lamented that Igbo leaders no longer respect the leader of the defunct Republic of Biafra, the late Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu.
MASSOB leader, Comrade Uchenna Madu, who made this observation in a statement, said the late Biafran leader was not happy with the current crop of political, traditional, religious and opinion leaders in Igboland.
“Ndigbo have abandoned the legacies and visions of Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu (Eze Igbo Gburugburu) even his image, personality and name are no longer respected or regarded in the political, economical, social, traditional and religious lives of Ndigbo.
“Ojukwu and our ancestors are not happy with Igbo leaders,” the MASSOB leader said in the statement.
The secessionist group said Igbos had caused even more harm to themselves than the Federal Government.
According to the MASSOB leader, Igbos put in more effort towards the development of foreign lands while neglecting Igboland.
He also chided Igbos for what he described as a ‘nonchalant’ attitude towards their ancestors.
Madu said, “Ndigbo have committed more harmful, dangerous and sacrilegious crimes against Igboland with their nonchalant attitude and selfishness against our ancestors.
“75 per cent of infrastructural, economic, academic, commercial, technological and agricultural developments in Lagos, Kano, Abuja, Kaduna, Jos, Ibadan, Ilorin and other major cities outside Igboland are established by Ndigbo.”
